COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONIt was created in 1933 by Alfred Dubuisson, grand-father of the present family brewer, Hugues. Its former name was "Bush Beer 24°" (the density in Ballings), but today it is known as Bush Amber. Its amber colour is due to the use of caramel malt in the production process. Its bitter sweet taste provides it with firmness and personality. What's more, it helps digestion.

The aroma is sweet and malty; cloudy, medium-amber with a long-lasting head; nicely smooth and thick; initially sweet, then the taste turns to alcohol with just a slight amount of bitterness - unfortunately, the alcohol dominates

Pours clear amber colour with white head. Visually low-medium carbonation.
Aroma with noticable presence of an alcohol, at the same time you can detect caramel, honey and some spices.
Flavor is similar: explicit presence of an alcohol, taste is sweet, with notes of honey, candy sugar and caramel, but at finish you can also detect hop esters: pine, grass, with some floral elements.
Body is stick-mouthful, carbonation is low -soft.
Proper belgian strong ale.

Poured a 2" beige head with decent retention. Body is a cross between golden yellow and amber and held to the light it shows clouding from fine particulates. Smell is really good with malt and caramel. Taste is rich with malt, caramel, and toffee, and it’s creamy and sweet. There’s a medium-long finish which feels like you just ate a sweet dessert.
